I am Raisa Vattulainen, a dedicated and passionate actress born in 1970. I graduated from the Theatre Academy in 1999 with a Master's degree in Theatre Arts and have extensive experience working as an actress in various city theatres across Finland, including Tampere, Jyväskylä, Lahti, and Vaasa. Over the years, I've been honored with several awards and have contributed not only as an actress but also as a producer, writer, and director in my own productions. With a rich background in both theatre and television, I bring depth and authenticity to my roles. I enjoy creating compelling stories and have skills in singing (soprano and mezzo-soprano), climbing, horseback riding, hip hop, afrotanssi, aerial acrobatics, and clownery. I am always eager to collaborate and contribute my talents to meaningful artistic endeavors.
